Documentation
Definition
In order to output reports and parallel reports, you must include them in a report group.
A report group is a group of reports and parallel reports from the same library which need to be processed together in one run.
You should group together several reports and parallel reports in one report group if you want the reports to evaluate what is basically the same data. Here, the data is only read once, and distributed to the various reports and parallel reports.
It is not possible to process reports and parallel reports from different libraries in one report group.
Technical note:
When you generate a report group, the system generates several ABAP programs:
- Program for processing the initial screen
- Program for selecting (reading) the data
- Program for multiple selection (multiple selection and output for different entry data - only if relevant indicator is set).
There are two different procedures for finding the name of the ABAP program for your report group:
- On the selection screen: Environment -> Technical Information
- On the output list: Extras -> Technical Information
If you change a set or report definition after the report group has been generated, the system regenerates the report group automatically at the next selection, providing this function was not explicitly deactivated in the report group definition.
The name of the report group must always be 4 characters long. Only the following characters are allowed:
- 'A' to 'Z'
- '0' to '9'
- '-' and '_'
